Freezing Boiled Blue Crabs?

I don’t have any experience freezing whole crabs, but from what I understand, you can’t freeze them very long because the fat will get rancid pretty quickly.

I would want to vacuum pack them though if I did freeze them.

I could be remembering incorrectly but I don’t have the Crab Bible in front of me to confirm.

Yeah if pop them and scrap all the fat out you can freeze them for a while.

How long can boiled crabs stay in the fridge before you’d not trust them?

I’ve eaten them a week after the boil with no problem.

But then again, I’ll eat anything.

This, but I'm also the type that keeps all leftovers for a week.
